Monthly Forum Discussion - March 2018 [Pre-Anniversary Special!] | Forums

[CaptainWeelie]

Howdy Riders,

After four years of crazy races with rad players from the world over, learning from the best Ghosts on hundreds of Leaderboards, owning those records on extreme Tracks in the Frontier, and racing a million miles in the Frontier, we'd like to thank you for sticking with us even when the ride was a bit bumpy!

This month's Forum Discussion is dedicated to listening to your suggestions and making our rides in the Frontier better than ever! Feel free to share any improvements in the game you'd like to see, if you'd like to see more of something already in the game, or even if it's something obvious, we'd love to hear.

Please remember that this is supposed to be a healthy discussion, so let's stick to 2 simple rules –

- Stay in topic
- Make this discussion fun, healthy & constructive

If you have suggestions for a topic for the upcoming month, do let us know as a response to this thread and we'll try to pick one and roll with it!

Cheers!

Make the blueprint for the donkey less complex, I mean make it more affordable

[negodyaeff]

1. Fix scoring bugs:

- Midnight Circuit extra scores and leaderboard freezig bug
- Extra 3mln points from track#0 bug
- Extra 3mln crazy points from "Collapsed Orchard" event track
- Ultimate medal score bug that gives instantly 3mln points
- Trapeze Churn and Wolf Den sub-10 bug (on crazy bikes possible to make sub-10 on those tracks but time is not registering in the LBs)
- Difference in profile and leaderboard records bug (records also should syncronize back from leaderboard to profile)
- Extra crazy scores for "Rigged Roadway" track, many people have Agent run scores from M.I. event, but it's impossible to ride it for new players.
- If sub-6 and sub-10 times are not registered in LBs then global score also shouldn't be calculated (anticheat measure).

2. Fix silent login vulnerabilities:
Here's the list what should be done:
- forbid to register multiple ubisoft accounts using same silentlogin account;
- forbid to register ubisoft account using banned silentlogin account;
- forbid to use silentlogin account after ubisoft account registration;
- forbid to rename silent login account at any time.

3. Fix "upgrades.txt" bug. After antispeedhack was introduced Agent and KTM 450 Rally become a bit slower.

4. Make bunker fair. Set maximum allowed showdowns from 50 to 10. Such big value as 50 allows not only jump from 25th rank to legends with hacked golden tickets but also have about 8 wins already in legends, it's not fair at all, and is only good opportunity for cheaters.

5. Fix bug when you buy track pieces but nothing happens (it occurs when track is in both completed and incompleted tracks sections of the savegame).

6. Fix Midnight Circuit entrance loop bug. It happens when player have saved record from previous MC, and new MC don't let player in.

7. Protect game against resource hacking with memory editing tools by hiding memory values in chipshop, daily shop and mission rewards.

8. Protect game against records hacking by hiding track time and score values in memory.

9. Protect game against hacking of reputation-based events such Love Express. Hide "love" value from memory.

10. Also try to add identification of popular memory editing tools and exit game when such tool is running. It's already works partially, game don't start when G***G**** is running.

11. After resource hacking protection will be implemented remove all hacked golden tickets from unfair players. They are stored on server side and it will be easy, without any synchronization. Also it possible to remove all coins and gems from unfair players, because game right now have forced synchronization feature.

12. Ban all cheaters with unreleased tracks, and remove old unreleased tracks from game because they give extra unfair scores.

13. Cleanup leaderboards from speedhackers, Bonxy site will help you with cheaters identification.

14. It would be nice to see track editor in game officially, at least as separate Sandbox mode. It will attract some creative people to the game.

15. Also with this amount in tracks it would be nice to have quick search feature.

16!!! TOP PRIORITY right now is to disable account cloning with silent login, make protection against records editing in memory and clean up leaderboards, because they are total mess right now. The longer you do nothing about it the more littered LBs are become every day.

17. There should be some convenient way for newcomers to get old tracks. The best way is to add them into the slotmachine and into the daily shop. Not temporary but forever.

18. Add new bikes into bunker

19. Remove "Phantom + Metal Mayhem" combo from bunker

20. Fix forced update bug, when you can bypass forced update window easily with certain conditions (can't tell here which ones).

21. Make Ghost Replay feature official. It's "must-have" for videomakers who promote game greatly.

22. Hide procedure "tr::ConsumableManager::isUnlimitedFuel" somehow, also make procedure "tr::PlayerItems::remove" more complex and better change it every version. There are unlimited resource mods for Android all over the net. Creators of those mods usually just replace first function to "return 1" and change sign of the operation in second one. They release mods pretty fast so obviously they just use templates. Make it more hard for them to hack game.

23. Fix "Wurst Racer" outfit. That thing on his stomach is invisible because face normals are turned inside out.
In game it looks like this:

But should look like this:


24. Fix Bandito's front wheel ingame model (not garage one), it miss some polygons, there's pretty obvious circle hole in it's rim:


25. Ban al cheaters who used Pasila bike, remove their records from leaderboards and remove this bike from game completely.

26. I know it's hard to implement, because there's not only some code should be changed, but also some global game concepts. But it would be VERY cool to have all bikes of same tier records saved into leaderboards, not just best ones. It will breath new life into game. From my point of view it's possible.

27. Game have jetbikes - unreleased feature. It would be cool to have jetbikes event on separate tracks made specially for it. Tracks should be enclosed, and consist of many traps like falling rocks, Indiana Jones-style rolling boulders, buzzsaws etc etc, use your imagination. Also some items can be collected during the event. It's such a waste not to use such cool feature.

28. Release "Peaks of Peril" track finally. You showed it already in Dakar event but still didn't release it.

29. Fix localization string for FAQ button in russian version of the game. The caption is too long and don't fit into button.

Tournaments. Frontier really needs these. The tournaments in Trials Evolution are really fun to ride, so why not?

Availability to get MORE missing tracks and bikes. Old players just can't keep up with everyone..

Anyways, listen to Alexander ^^

[RedDevil-TFG]

Listen to Alexander (Negodyaeff). That's all.

[FBOOK-GROUP-TFG]

EDITED: please reread for additions.

1. HIRE negodyaeff.

2. I think the ULTIMATE ENJOYABLE REPLAYABILITY for all players would be to allow all bikes on all tracks and have a separate leaderboard for each bike for each track. Rerunning every track again competitively x13 other bikes would be AWESOME. Throw in some story mode to introduce it and it will be an AMAZING GAME-CHANGER. (similar to negodyaeff #26)
at the very least separate stallion from agent as it's not a fair fight (maybe do this as a test to make a separate leaderboard for all bikes)

3. fun new bunker race modes - must complete back flips, front flips, wheelies, air time, inverted air time (similar to slots) - then time and faults determine winner



other minor tweaks:

1. add all tracks for doghouse

2. new slot machine missions - add all bikes and more tracks

3. new bikes and tracks in bunker matches

4. more story mode

[justinman114]

Listen to Alex (Negodyaeff)

Also please make "bunker only" tracks available on world map, or at LEAST make it possible to get them. I have seen Rigged Roadway over 100 times and not once with the Donkey.

Thx.

[Jeeron-IT]

Hello!

I'd love to replay the story line completely for scratch, without losing my account progress! A story-mode version would be great

And yeah hire negodyaeff haha

cheers

[dutscher-DE]

hey there, i have some ux issues
1. why it is possible to retry the track hundred times, but it is not possible to change the bike. for that you have to go through finishline, spin wheel and than pay gas for retry. please make a bike change due intrack mode.

2. i'm in the town, go into map, went ferry, and play a track on petrol falls, i will exit this track. now i'm landing im town. please remember my latest map position for exit.

3. scrolling in tasklists (e.g. love express) i have to scroll everytime to the latest position, please remember my personal latest position in scroll list.

4. hire alex

5. make my map and bonxys page available ingame. whoop whoop

cheers and happy anniversary (4 years playing, **** the first and only, which i played soooo long)

[WastedZymbol]

I'd love to see the two crazy bikes get their own LB. The Agent simply cannot compete with a bike that can jump... Ridiculous.
